Hi Mindy, your symptoms sounds normal! I am also preg. with my 2nd baby and I remember at 32 weeks I had the same problem. I too was freaking out because it hurt to walk, sleep, roll over and forget about bending down. My back and thighs were killing me, but that's all due to the baby changing position. By now he/she should be going into the head first position, and getting ready to enter the birth canal. By now you are probably tired of being pregnant and is waiting for their arrival! Just relax, elevate your feet, and keep a heating pad on your back before going to bed. Good luck!
